Building on the success of Sony's first intelligent network speed dome the SNC-RX550 launched in 2007, Sony will further boost the line-up with the introduction of two Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) IP cameras.  The entry-level model SNC-RX530 is based on a 1/4 type Exwave HAD® CCD and provides an 18x optical zoom.  The new high-end model, Sony's new SNC-RX570, features a 1/4 type Exwave HAD® CCD with DynaView wide dynamic range technology and a 36x zoom lens.  All of the models in this range combine speed dome capability with extremely high image quality, DEPA intelligence, dual encoding and three compression formats, and privacy zone masking.
